A59044	Animadversions upon a book entituled Inquisition for the blood of our late soveraign &c., and upon the offence taken at it wherein in order to peace the ground, reason, and end of our wars are discovered, the old cause stated and determined, the late insurrection animadverted, and a way of peace propounded / by William Sedgwicke.

have_v write_v some_o part_n of_o it_o i_o offer_v it_o to_o the_o press_n by_o the_o bookseller_n that_o print_v the_o inquisition_n upon_o consideration_n he_o tell_v i_o that_o there_o be_v that_o rage_n kindle_v in_o man_n mind_n against_o the_o other_o book_n that_o his_o man_n dare_v not_o show_v they_o in_o the_o shop_n and_o that_o nothing_o of_o i_o will_v pass_v till_o that_o spirit_n be_v lay_v and_o therefore_o he_o dare_v not_o meddle_v with_o this_o to_o print_v it_o my_o mind_n be_v very_o weak_a and_o tender_a and_o apt_a to_o take_v check_n at_o such_o thing_n this_o do_v not_o only_o put_v i_o to_o a_o stand_n but_o turn_v my_o mind_n quite_o about_o to_o hearken_v more_o attentive_o to_o this_o cry_n that_o do_v thus_o earnest_o pursue_v i_o and_o to_o consider_v that_o sure_o this_o mouth_n that_o be_v thus_o open_v against_o i_o do_v require_v something_o of_o i_o and_o that_o i_o can_v not_o fair_o nor_o just_o slight_a and_o neglect_v it_o any_o long_o and_o that_o i_o can_v not_o proceed_v in_o my_o intend_a work_n till_o i_o have_v answer_v this_o plea_n against_o i_o sect_n ii_o it_o be_v a_o position_n in_o my_o mind_n that_o no_o person_n or_o thing_n that_o we_o converse_v with_o be_v absolute_o evil_a but_o there_o be_v some_o good_a in_o every_o thing_n else_o it_o can_v not_o be_v and_o therefore_o nothing_o be_v to_o be_v reprobate_v or_o not_o till_o it_o be_v first_o sift_v and_o try_v by_o my_o own_o rule_n i_o be_o bind_v to_o think_v that_o though_o these_o angry_a speech_n against_o i_o be_v my_o enemy_n yet_o sure_o there_o be_v some_o just_a reason_n in_o they_o such_o sound_n at_o these_o be_v not_o without_o their_o significancy_n if_o so_o than_o i_o must_v not_o reject_v they_o because_o opposite_a and_o unpleasing_a but_o must_v admit_v they_o to_o the_o bar_n of_o my_o own_o reason_n and_o not_o only_o give_v they_o a_o fair_a hear_n but_o all_o the_o advantage_n also_o that_o i_o can_v because_o the_o court_n be_v my_o own_o mind_n where_o they_o be_v stranger_n and_o be_v weak_a distemper_a thing_n i_o ought_v to_o humble_v myself_o to_o they_o though_o my_o enemy_n and_o to_o descend_v from_o my_o own_o right_n to_o hear_v and_o satisfy_v they_o if_o i_o can_v or_o at_o least_o to_o do_v they_o justice_n for_o i_o consider_v though_o they_o be_v dark_a passion_n yet_o they_o be_v humane_a and_o every_o man_n be_v honourable_a and_o every_o affection_n in_o man_n though_o sick_a and_o distemper_a be_v of_o value_n beside_o they_o be_v zealous_a serious_a brethren_n friend_n christian_n therefore_o i_o must_v query_n have_v i_o not_o err_v against_o they_o have_v i_o not_o do_v they_o wrong_v have_v i_o not_o detain_v something_o from_o they_o that_o be_v their_o due_n we_o have_v profess_v a_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n within_o we_o if_o it_o be_v there_o indeed_o than_o we_o have_v in_o we_o a_o throne_n of_o judgement_n which_o must_v do_v right_a to_o all_o thing_n that_o come_v before_o we_o in_o this_o kingdom_n there_o be_v also_o sufficient_a to_o answer_v every_o plea_n and_o claim_v that_o be_v make_v to_o it_o or_o against_o it_o and_o therefore_o we_o need_v not_o fear_v to_o admit_v the_o great_a and_o strong_a accusation_n to_o a_o full_a and_o fair_a hear_n where_o there_o be_v authority_n to_o judge_v and_o sufficiency_n to_o answer_v there_o be_v likewise_o wisdom_n to_o understand_v what_o there_o be_v in_o these_o clamour_n though_o they_o be_v of_o themselves_o very_o dark_a and_o confuse_a thing_n for_o the_o mind_n may_v taste_v and_o try_v all_o thing_n thorough_o and_o every_o thing_n that_o come_v into_o it_o must_v be_v open_v and_o see_v in_o that_o light_n that_o be_v in_o it_o because_o the_o mind_n be_v a_o supreme_a light_n to_o which_o all_o thing_n be_v subject_a that_o come_v before_o it_o therefore_o set_v myself_o to_o examine_v and_o consider_v these_o thing_n i_o find_v first_o that_o although_o there_o be_v just_a reason_n in_o the_o book_n yet_o there_o be_v something_o that_o hinder_v man_n from_o the_o see_v of_o it_o and_o though_o there_o be_v love_n and_o good_a in_o it_o yet_o there_o be_v something_o also_o that_o deny_v man_n the_o benefit_n of_o it_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v righteous_a that_o it_o shall_v be_v animadvert_v and_o endure_v a_o trial_n and_o second_o i_o find_v that_o there_o be_v some_o thing_n in_o myself_o that_o be_v just_o due_a both_o to_o my_o friend_n and_o brethren_n and_o to_o the_o book_n itself_o that_o be_v not_o therein_o communicate_v which_o be_v my_o life_n and_o spirit_n the_o ground_n upon_o which_o i_o stand_v upon_o which_o i_o write_v and_o by_o which_o i_o be_o enable_v to_o assert_v thing_n so_o different_a from_o other_o as_o these_o high_a challenge_n of_o my_o spirit_n and_o peace_n do_v tell_v i_o that_o this_o be_v the_o thing_n want_v and_o now_o demand_v of_o i_o so_o i_o be_o upon_o this_o review_n of_o thing_n conscious_a to_o myself_o that_o i_o have_v not_o full_o open_v myself_o and_o my_o mind_n but_o have_v in_o a_o great_a measure_n conceal_v it_o as_o well_o as_o my_o name_n and_o therefore_o i_o must_v thus_o far_o justify_v the_o plea_n against_o i_o that_o if_o a_o man_n bring_v forth_o a_o notion_n of_o thing_n different_a from_o and_o contrary_a to_o the_o life_n of_o other_o they_o may_v just_o refuse_v that_o notion_n if_o the_o author_n do_v not_o bring_v forth_o his_o own_o life_n spirit_n and_o peace_n which_o only_o can_v maintain_v those_o notion_n and_o satisfy_v for_o that_o life_n that_o he_o will_v take_v away_o by_o those_o notion_n this_o be_v for_o you_o and_o therefore_o i_o hope_v you_o will_v well_o observe_v the_o justice_n of_o it_o i_o be_o content_a to_o condemn_v what_o i_o have_v do_v as_o guilty_a of_o this_o capital_a offence_n it_o may_v possible_o stand_v as_o a_o law_n to_o i_o and_o other_o hereafter_o that_o if_o any_o man_n write_v be_v it_o never_o so_o good_a reason_n and_o with_o good_a intention_n if_o he_o do_v not_o produce_v the_o head_n of_o the_o spring_n from_o whence_o it_o come_v and_o his_o own_o heart_n soul_n and_o peace_n with_o it_o let_v it_o wither_v and_o be_v reject_v true_o i_o believe_v it_o will_n there_o be_v a_o further_a justice_n in_o the_o person_n offend_v if_o any_o man_n utter_v his_o matter_n to_o his_o friend_n and_o conceal_v himself_o he_o deal_v injurious_o with_o they_o in_o bring_v forth_o the_o weak_a and_o worse_o and_o hide_v the_o better_a part_n which_o the_o royal_a law_n of_o love_n will_v condemn_v as_o a_o great_a wrong_n for_o certain_o if_o there_o be_v any_o thing_n worthy_a in_o a_o man_n it_o be_v his_o spiritual_a life_n and_o therefore_o i_o justify_v your_o anger_n you_o do_v like_o friend_n and_o man_n not_o to_o take_v word_n notion_n and_o reason_n if_o there_o be_v a_o better_a thing_n in_o i_o your_o own_o life_n and_o peace_n be_v aim_v at_o you_o may_v well_o challenge_v i_o to_o show_v a_o better_a i_o have_v this_o relief_n against_o this_o charge_n that_o though_o i_o be_o guilty_a in_o not_o discover_v the_o best_a yet_o the_o best_a be_v still_o with_o i_o and_o be_v my_o own_o as_o yet_o it_o will_v support_v and_o justify_v i_o neither_o can_v i_o complain_v just_o of_o any_o injury_n do_v to_o i_o by_o these_o sharp_a censure_n for_o if_o any_o man_n will_v put_v on_o a_o appearance_n strange_a to_o his_o neighbour_n and_o withal_o cover_v his_o face_n it_o be_v no_o wonder_n if_o man_n beat_v he_o and_o the_o dog_n bark_n
